That's a shame that it takes so long, after they (FA or whoever) already had all summer to get him that work-permit...but just gave it to him this week.
Nope, didn't get any card at all. The ref didn't see it. VERY lucky he didn't too, because it was a plain and simple use-his-calf-as-a-stepping-sto ne stomp.
Wouldn't be surprised if he were retroactively punished though.
This is the beginning of many mistakes referees will make. Our defense was strong today, man, if only Djourou made a better pass, we would of scored lol
The Arsenal defense looked good, but then again Newcastle have no one up front that could really cause them problems. Also, someone who can play those defense shattering passes that Fabregas can do is needed.
Both teams are terrible. This game was mind numbingly boring to watch. Arsenal definitely won't crack the top 4, maybe not even the top 6, and Newcastle may be in a relegation battle if they don't get a striker and another playmaking midfielder.
Song was lucky not to see red, but so is Joey Barton. How is that only a yellow card?!
Otherwise, our defense actually did look solid, especially Szczesny and Vermaelen, but our attack was too blunt.
Guess Wenger isn't wrong by making attacking purchases...
